Regarding how Brock Lesnar reacted to this, Bruce noted that Lesnar had no idea about his match with Austin:

“Well Brock had no idea. Brock had no idea of the proposed match or that he was supposed to go over Steve or anything. So I don’t know if Brock had any reaction whatsoever because it never got to that point with him. They had pitched Steve and Vince was still going back and forth with Steve at that point. I’m sure Paul probably let Brock know what the proposed match was, but no I don’t think Brock was anywhere in a point of – I don’t wanna say not caring one way or another but it wasn’t to that point for it to matter.”
